Incorporated in 2002, The Village of Palmetto Bay is located adjacent to Biscayne Bay and south of the City of Miami. Palmetto Bay offers its 25,000 residents direct bay access, lush landscaping, historical sites, popular annual events, and numerous city operated parks, which has ultimately earned it the nickname, Village of Parks.

The Village of Palmetto Bay holds annual events that attract hundreds of visitors, including the popular In the Park with Art at Coral Reef Park. The annual exhibition, held in October, is presented by The Cultural Council, Inc. and has been attracting local artists, national artists, residents and tourists alike since 2003.

Continuing its commitment to development and its residents, The Village of Palmetto Bay is currently planning to add a neighborhood library. Palmetto Bay also boasts markets, restaurants and lodging options.
